This is How I landed up in Singapore

All of u don get confused by this name "Singapore" ....actually the truth is I have never visited Singapore.....But Haryana govt. says they will turn gurgaon into singapore in coming future.......and neways i don like this name "gurgaon" ...so u know.....just .........got an excuse to write it that way.. :-)
probably this is my first Blog. Actually i like reading people's blogs rather than writing one...because i am not at all a good narrator in the first place nor i like to share my personal views in public unless i am asked to give one............but just today morning i changed my mind...i was missing my friends out there in mumbai....i wanted to talk to all of them...i even called few of them...but then i thought if i wanna talk to everyone at the same time...a blog would be the best way of doing it..... and thats how i ended up writing my FIRST BLOG.....
Guys i miss you all.....i don't have words to express how lonely i feel when i think of one of those days when we were together in lodhivali........in koper khairane....in DAKC...in hospital canteen..............in food court.......on conf. calls........those mails.............those parties..........those night-outs..........long drives...........i mean each n every thing we did......i am not too sensitive a guy......but i almost end up crying when i start recalling my last two years.........may be two most memorable years of my life......may be in your life tooo....
These years have been a period of grooming emotionally.....professionally........socially........and by and large it was one of the richest learning experience in our lives....i don know how many of u agree with me..........
When i was having that last walk in DAKC..from D block to gate-1 along with my sister....we both were crying and we were feeling like.....may be we will never see this place again in our entire life....when sid came to see us on gate-1...i didn't have words....i wanted to burst out in tears ...but we controlled ourselves......sid..i can never forget that moment.....more and more days i am passing here in this new place i have started to fear that we might never meet again....u know...people say that the world is small and communication might have advanced..may be we r just a call away from each other......but i don feel like that..when we are not physically present it makes a difference...a hell lot of difference....
Let me share my experience in gurgaon which i had in past three months...may be it will lighten the mood.....it was too heavy for me tooo..:-)
Hummmm where to start???ok i will start with office..the word " office" itself sounds so boring..i know..but here it is not so boring...because all the time u r in office your ass is on fire...so u don have time to get bored...me..lavan and prady r on same floor..probably two-three workstations away but we hardly get time to meet each other....i can't believe we never had a single coffee together in pantry.....and in reliance..my god...i can't forget those freaking coffee breaks......remember guys...
we used to have long long breaks.......even in lunch we used to be center of attention......a GANG i should rather say...
..............first week of our job...ha ha..sid u were caught sleeping and bugger u got me involved tooo......like in school when we reveal our partners in crime...when we r caught....to save our ass.... but things r different here in gurgaon...
in equant....senior staff is French ....their pronunciations are horrible to decode.....shitt....half the time when i get escalation calls for some network faults or outages..i understand only 10% of the issue....u won't believe in starting...me n my colleagues used to put on the speaker phone and used to laugh like nuts when those goras used to frown over the phone waiting for us to respond....ha ha...job is quite tough..too much pressure..in fact operations is always a demanding job....above all that i have not yet adjusted to this shift pattern...night shifts are a royal pain in the ass.............
and let me tell u something about public transport here..i call it " New Bombay Rainbow Circus "...remember those six sitters in lodhivalis...here in those rickshaws they load at least 13-15 people....may be three in front including driver......8-10 in back...and the best part is two people standing on rear mud-guard... if this is not enough...they never drive below 70.....ha ha..thats how it looks like circus..touch-wood i never had to use one of those till now......
and the bus service...my god...all of these drivers were previously driving formula-one cars..so u can imagine how they would be driving...i always thank god after reaching home intact in "one piece" whenever i go out on my bike.......
This place is not that safe to freak-out late nights and party....after 11 hardly u see neone on roads....as specially for girls this place is not too safe...food is ok.....but i hate these haryana people and their mentality.......punjabis r ok...but these haryana JATTs are ...ruthless....
sam...remember the last party we had.......me.u....sid..saurabh..bhoomi and dash......we were almost 10 pegs down.....n bhoomi was driving.....u were womitting outside the window....i was sitting in front blabbering...some stupid jokes.....sid was laughing like nuts on those stupid jokes.....poor bhoomi....caught between three bewdas....ha ha..can't just forget that party...i even can't forget that party n kanchanjangha terrace...when malar was leaving...if i start recalling then i will never be able to end this blog....may be i am boring u guys now..its time to end this blog...
in short....nothing can match mumbai......there is no good life out here.....big malls......hot babes.....oily-buttery-spicy food....thick-skinned people....lonely days....screwed-up law n order......rash driving......BIG printing mistake on all real-estate bills.....light-bills... i hope u guys remember what we called a printing mistake )....and thats it..thats it about Gurgaon....
I wish i could go back in time and do all those things we did together....i don wanna regret about anything i did in navi-mumbai....everything i did was what i always wanted to do....may be something’s right and some wrong things...but i really wanted to do it all again and again....n again n again.......sid,sam,venki,gaurav,saurabh,rasi,jay,ayan,bhoomi,prachi,lavan,prady,moumi,muz,gayatri,malar,charu,ragha,prakash,prasanna,arun,eashwari,deb....my list is too long.....and all these people will always be part of my stories which i will be telling my children and grandchildren in future.......
Once again i want to say...I miss you all and i miss you so very much....take care and wait for my second boring blog very soon...
Love,
Bugs...Bhardwaj......Bhadwa-raj...Barath.....lamp-post.....podalanga...Pappa....Khal-nayak.......Bhai......Lambu...( does not matter by what name you know me....but what is more imp that u remember me )

dude,
Man..navi mumbai or for that matter reliance is not the same without you guys..a lot of ppl have left and me and only two others are hanging around here...so u r not missing out on anything great here..it is the same story here too except for the familiarity with the place and the ppl...apert from that life is slow here too...why don't u try hooking up with one of the hot/warm/luke warm chicks there.,,BTW I think in that list u forgot Sandhya's name...wink..
hey bugs..
that was straight from the heart post ...huh..some unprintable words there..
but it is so typically u...that it feels very natural coming from u ..
Yeah life is so hectic ...& do agree on certain aspects of what u r saying ...but still life goes on...
good start

None of the 3 of us wud have imagined that we will ever work like this!!!!
neways...all is for good...we need to accept change.&
it is important at same time that we all try to stay in touch!!!

prady.

completely with ur "arse on fire" i think a well-written blog..seems ur english has improved ...hihihi...

countless
pegs... jo bhi thoda bahut pee ta tha ab bandh kar diya
:))..........keep
writing n i'll love to read them 'cos u r v dear to me as my friend...

tujhe... hmmmmm...
Bugs,this info is specially for u...pls dig into details........

Guys n Gals thx for giving those comments.
Sid... I know life is not the same for you in Koper Khairane as well as DAKC. And regarding your advise..hummmm....the babes r HOT but they too have the same f**king ruthless mentality ( Note:- using ** because u all know what ** means here, as well as lavan will be happy not to see any unprintable text this time...ha ha)AND I DEFINITELY WANT TO KNOW WHAT IS SAM TALKING ABOUT????? KINDLY EXPLAIN THOSE LUNCH DETAILS....u can mail me about it..
Gaurav... dost tu angrezi me bol ya hindi me...teri baat me hamesha ki tarah samaj jaunga..after all we were room-mates...jaldi se shaadi kar le mote..ab to mom n dad bhi aa gaye hai...mai baat karu kya unse??
Lavan... U r right .. it was straight from my heart.. and my all blogs will be like that..ya and life goes on too...but there are times when u don live it..u just let it go on...and thats when u miss your loved ones the most...And don take my ** comment so seriously..i was just mocking at u..( now for this again u will say..so typically me...ha ha..)
Prady.. your last point is absolutely correct... things do change but we need to keep trying to be in touch.....
sam...same here. u will always be a swetheart. and a** on fire is because of work....and i assure u that i will be the same even after next 100 years.....if u will be alive to see me...wink.
Love,
Bugs.
Hai Podalanga ,
Nice blog and a gr8 start .... as Prady said , I felt very nostalgic after reading the blog .
I agree with you that though we can be in touch thru mail / phone ..we will really miss the physical presence of our friends ... but still this is how life is .
Sam ..lazy uncle sam ..and God knows when you will change !!!!
looking forward to read more blogs like this .
Hi Bhardwaj,
Normally I don't comment on Blogs as long as they are on any emotional subject. But for this one any comment would find itself hard to qualify as one. Its a very sincere expression that you have meant in your blog.
Gud luk 2 you
